Maui Tacos was the brainchild of Mark Ellman, the superior Maui chef (Mala, Penne Pasta, and Honu). It has since become a national chain, but the Maui locations — of which there are several — are still making every dish to order and using good, fresh ingredients. Has the love left, now that Mark Ellman […]

Beer lovers should absolutely visit Maui Brewing Company Brew Pub, the island’s only microbrewery. The sustainably-minded company crafts excellent, national award-winning brews, and we especially recommend the pale, clean-flavored Bikini Blonde and the dark chocolatey CoCoNut Porter.

Closed for several years before its recent renovation, expansion and reopening, Maui Bake Shop is even better than before. Now, in addition to faultless croissants and Italian espresso, you can enjoy […]
